RVK · A compact, lounge-free Avinor STOL field at Ryum for Rørvik and Nærøysund — no named café on Avinor’s shopping list, taxi or Hertz instead of a published airport bus, and Namdal coastal weather on a sub-1 km 04/22 runway as the tradeoff against total terminal simplicity.
OSY · A compact, lounge-free Avinor STOL field on Høknesøra for Namsos and Namdal — no named café on Avinor’s shopping list, Saturday terminal closure on the contact page, taxi (or sparse Entur bus 695) instead of a published flybuss, and short-runway weather on 07/25 as the tradeoff against total terminal simplicity.

Namdal coastal weather on a ~830 m 04/22 STOL strip owns the clock
